GREEN BAY - At least 10 people will receive citations in connection with the March 5 crash on the Leo Frigo Memorial Bridge in Green Bay.

Eight people were injured when cars began colliding around 7:40 a.m. March 5 in the bridge's southbound lanes. Six required treatment at a hospital. The bridge was closed for more than four hours while officers investigated.

Five drivers received municipal citations for following too closely and five were cited for going to fast for conditions, Strouf said.

One report has not been submitted. One or two additional citations could be issued as a result of that report, Strouf said.

Bright sun and a light dusting of snow that had turned to frost that morning contributed to the crash, although driver error was determined to be the cause, Strouf said.

Paul Fontecchio, Brown County Public Works director and highway commissioner, last week said fast moving traffic was catching up to and tightly packing in behind slower moving traffic that was following a county highway maintenance truck.

As the traffic became more closely packed together, it became more difficult for drivers to see what was happening ahead of them, Fontecchio said.

"At the end of the day, the responsibility falls on the driver to stop when you need to stop,” Strouf said.
